Electric issue?

Hello

Just bought a stage 2 M5 Competition facelift, however im having this weird problem when i try to give it full throttle or take a hard corner it cuts of power and the dash resets itself and gives me alot of malfunktion codes, these codes goes away after a few seconds. Feels like the car shuts down the electronics

Ive checked the battery and also tried another battery that i know is good but had the same problem, checked the voltage on alternator and shows 14.7 - 14.9V. Checked the ground cables that goes to the battery, ECU boxes and also the ground that is near transmission but all looks fine. Im starting to run out of ideas and my mechanic has no idea what the problem could be

Anyone had similliar problem with their M5? Will try posting a video on all errors that i recieve

Appreciate all help and sorry for my bad english

If there is no immediate solution you can always remove the tune and see if there's any change.

Some members had similar problems (myself included). Turned out to be loose connections to the ecu. Check that everything is tight, including the ground wires.

It's unlikely alternator is the problem, you have stage 2 tune so have you changed the sp/plugs for colder ones (if you drive it with gusto) recently and adjusted the gaps to suit. Standard gap is .032 and ppl on here are taking them down to .024 with these tunes.

I dont think it has anything to do with the spark plugs, the car feels like reseting itself, power cuts out then it send alot of fault messages.
